I am really pleased to have recently found out that I have been selected to play for England in the Under 15 Langenfeld tournament in Germany, which is being held from the 24th – 26th August. The only downfall to this is that I am supposed to be on holiday with my family and our friends in Turkey. My dad has heroically said that he will bring me back early so that I can join the team.

Although this has cost my family more in air fares, I am lucky that my parents are very supportive and agree that it is a privilege to be chosen to represent my country once again.
